Ground-level ozone (O3) pollution frequently co-occurs with drought and nitrogen (N) deposition during the growing season. It is important to understand how the carbon dynamics of plants respond to O3 pollution in drier and N-enriched environments. Here we present the patterns of non-structural carbohydrates and its components (soluble sugar and starch) in the leaves and fine roots in poplar clone 546 (Populus deltoides cv. '55/56'×P. deltoides cv. 'Imperial') for one growing season at two O3 concentrations (control, charcoal-filtered air, and elevated O3, non-filtered air+40 nmol?mol-1 of O3), two watering regimes (well-watered and reduced watering at 40% of well-watered irrigation), and two soil nitrogen addition treatments[no addition and the addition of 50 kg?(hm2?a)-1]. The results showed that O3 stress significantly increased the content of soluble sugar in leaves and starch in fine roots but decreased the content of starch and total non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) in leaves. Drought stress significantly reduced the content of starch and total NSC in leaves but increased the contents of soluble sugar and total NSC in fine roots. Nitrogen addition had no significant effect on NSC and its components in leaves and fine roots. NSC and its components in leaves and fine roots were positively correlated with photosynthetic rate and biomass. With an increase in the number of environmental stress factors, NSC in leaves showed a significant downward trend while NSC in fine roots showed a significant upward trend. The study demonstrates that environmental stress can promote the transformation of starch into soluble sugars in plant leaves and the transfer of NSC from leaves to roots for storage, which may be a coping strategy for plants exposed to environmental stress.Wheat is the main food crop in China while at the same time, heavy metals pose a significant threat to crop growth and food security. Many studies indicate that rhizospheric microorganism play an important role in regulating crop development and stress resistance. In this study, the variation in wheat root-associated microbial communities under copper pollution was studied using high-throughput sequencing. The microbial community structure and diversity among different wheat rhizocompartments were compared after sequencing of microbial communities in the bulk soil, rhizosphere, and endosphere of wheat under copper pollution in combination with pot-based experiments. The results showed that the microbial diversity of the endosphere was significantly lower than in the rhizosphere and bulk soil(P0.05). Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria were the dominant bacteria groups in the rhizosphere and the bulk soil under copper pollution. In addition, microbes such as Bacillus, Pseudoxanthomonas, and Sphingomonas show strong stress resistance and can provide nutrients for plants.The rhizosphere priming effect (RPE) caused by carbon inputs from crop rhizodeposits plays a key role in regulating the carbon emission flux and carbon balance of farmland soils. Due to frequent alternations between dry and wet conditions, CO2 and CH4 emissions and the RPE in paddy field ecosystems are significantly different to those of other ecosystems. Therefore, it is of great significance to determine the direction and intensity of the rice RPE under alternations of dry and wet to limit greenhouse gas emissions. In this study, using a 13C-CO2 continuous labeling method combined with a pot-based experiment, the response of rice growth and the RPE under alternating dry and wet and continuous flooding conditions was examined. The results showed that, compared with the continuous flooding treatment, the alternating dry and wet treatments significantly increased aboveground and root biomass and the root-to-root ratio, and also increased soil microbial biomass. Under continuous flooding conditions, fluxes of 13CO2 and 13CH4 increased with rice growth from 10.2 μg?(kg?h)-1 and 2.8 μg?(kg?h)-1 (63 d) to 16.0 μg?(kg?h)-1 and 3.2 μg?(kg?h)-1 (75 d), respectively. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/inaxaplin.html During the 12-day drying process, the emissions of 13CO2 and 13CH4 derived from rhizosphere deposited C decreased by 57.5% and 88.1%. Under continuous flooding conditions, the RPE for CO2 and CH4 were positive and increased with the growth of rice. Under the alternating dry and wet treatment, after 12 days of drying, the RPE for CO2 and CH4 was reduced from 0.29 mg?(kg?h)-1 and 12.3 μg?(kg?h)-1 (63 d) to -0.39 mg?(kg?h)-1 and 0.07 μg?(kg?h)-1 (75 d). Thus, alternating wet and dry treatment can effectively promote rice growth and reduce the cumulative emissions of CH4. Therefore, adopting appropriate field water management is of great significance for increasing rice yields and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.Studying the influence of precipitation patterns on plant community diversity, soil CNP ecological stoichiometric characteristics, and the relationships between key soil factors and plant community diversity is of great significance for the protection of plant community diversity in desert grasslands. This paper was studied in the desert steppe of the west of Loess Plateau using a three-year precipitation manipulation experiment (40% reduction in precipitation, 20% reduction in precipitation, natural precipitation, 20% increase in precipitation, and 40% increase in precipitation), explored the influence of changes in precipitation in dry and wet years on the diversity of plant community and soil CNP ecological stoichiometric characteristics. And we also explored the relationship between soil CNP ecological stoichiometric characteristics and the key soil factors and the diversity of plant community under changes in precipitation. The results showed that in a normal year and the drier year (2013 and 2015), Patr, precipitation was abundant leading to a rise in soil nutrients. Water was not the most important factor limiting to plant growth whereas soil water content, soil nutrients, and ecological stoichiometric characteristics jointly regulate plant community diversity. In the drier years, precipitation treatments had a significant impact on soil water content, whereby an increase in precipitation led to high losses of soil nutrients. Therefore, soil water content was the most important factor affecting plant community diversity during drier years. These observations indicate that under dry and wet years, plant community diversity and soil CNP ecological stoichiometric characteristics have variable responses to precipitation and soil CNP effect on plant community were also different. These results provide a theoretical basis for the protection and management of desert steppe systems under future projected changes in precipitation.
